Apoptosis in murine adrenal glands. From WT and TLR2-/- mice treated with PBS (2 hours), pLTA (1 mg/kg; 2 hours) or pLTA/ACTCH (left) and from WT mice that underwent CLP sham operation (sham), CLP with single (CLP-1P) or double (CLP-2P) puncture (right). TUNEL staining in adrenal sections showing whole adrenals (inserted pictures; 100× magnification), cortex and medulla area (400× magnification). The apoptotic cells appeared with brown nuclear staining.
